This book focuses on reconciliation in Northern Ireland and South Africa. The overarching aim is to identify «formal and material conditions», or prerequisites, for reconciliation and moral community (or more precisely a «shared moral landscape»). In both countries obstacles to reconciliation can be found in the following elements of a «moral landscape»: Experiences of trauma, separation and inequalities; divergent views of the conflict and of «the other»; opposing identifications and loyalties; certain norms for interaction and contestant interpretations of values such as «peace» and «justice». This book describes how these obstacles have been addressed in: 1) Efforts, particularly by ecumenical groups, to bridge the Catholic/Protestant divide in Northern Ireland. 2) The work of, and debates surrounding, the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission. On the basis of these dialogues in adverse circumstances, this study then suggests some prerequisites for «emancipatory conversations» - a central question in the search for a global ethics.

Studie over het werk van de Duitse schilder (1858-1925)
Presents the basic chemistry of organo-transition metal complexes in the context of real synthetic applications. Examples of de novo syntheses of natural product molecules are used to illustrate the application of established reactivity patterns to organic synthesis. Explains reactivity phenomena by using frontier molecular orbital approaches. Discusses fundamental reactivity and bonding patterns while giving broad coverage of organometallic chemistry.
